DESCRIPTION

On its introduction, the Struts project radically changed the Java web development and since then a great number of Struts-based applications have been deployed worldwide. The latest is the Apache Struts 2 which is the result of a merger between the Apache Struts and OpenSymphony WebWork projects. The objective behind the development of this product was to develop an easy-to-use yet feature-rich framework Struts 2 is superior to the traditional Struts in that it has some solid features like plugin framework, JavaServer Faces integration, and XML-free configuration. The book serves as a guide for developing professional, production-ready modern web applications as it covers completely the Apache Struts 2 web application framework. Java web developers with a background in Struts 1 or WebWork would value this book greatly.

The authors of the book are Don Brown, Chad Davis and Scott Stanlick. Don Brown is a member of the Apache Software Foundation, and has been a Struts committer since 2003. Chad Davis is a J2EE developer, software consultant, and writer. He has vast experience in writing and has published poetry and written draft legislation at the state level besides computer science journals. Scott Stanlick is a corporate IT instructor and has experience in embedded systems, client-server applications, and large scale distributed applications.
